yesterday i was just chillin lookin up things on hypnosis when i suddenly became very sleepy so i went to bed as i normally would. the bizzare thing is that i was dreaming that i was in some strange room and suddenly....i felt my body,heard the people next door and faint sounds from the tv(low volume). it was at that point that i realised that i was awake....but i was still in my dream at the same time. since this isnt normal to me i reacted with fear and tried to move and when id try to move my arm i would throw it up in my dream but i could only flex the arm conciously and the same went for my legs and torso. then i began to yell in my dream but emitted a muffled moan in reality (couldnt open my mouth). then i just suddenly jerked awake yelling and confused.
i checked my surroundings and realised people were wrestling next door,that the football game i heard in my odd state was the show two a days, and that the strange room was only slightly different from my room. was this astral projection or something different. (sorry for the long message)
my guess is that it is a projection.. congratulations on your first (i think)
That would be sleep paralysis. Those who experience it for the first time often think they are dying. :-o The good news is that you aren't in danger, and you can even have fun with it if you learn to project during an episode.
Accidental projections are the best! Congrats Gangta.
